00:30.000 --> 00:32.760
You wouldn't tell me.

00:32.760 --> 00:33.900
You wouldn't tell me, either.

00:33.900 --> 00:34.900
Why couldn't I believe you?

00:34.900 --> 00:37.200
Princeton, you take these guys to it.

00:37.200 --> 00:38.840
But my honor and honor to my brother.

00:38.840 --> 00:40.200
Where is my sister?

00:40.200 --> 00:41.280
Princess is here.

00:41.280 --> 00:42.540
Well, of course, ma'am.

00:42.540 --> 00:44.680
Your hiding place is right here in przeszłoństwo.

00:44.680 --> 00:47.040
It's not hot, so that nobody knows you're back.

00:47.040 --> 00:48.980
Now we go for another round.

00:48.980 --> 00:49.960
What's happened?

00:49.960 --> 00:51.020
It just happened.

00:51.020 --> 00:53.120
He is fell down.

00:53.120 --> 00:54.380
That's it.

00:54.380 --> 00:55.820
I can't do nothing about it.

00:55.820 --> 00:56.920
Give them the shelter.

00:56.920 --> 00:58.460
kid will climb the board.

00:58.460 --> 01:00.460
Mr. Holmes!

01:28.460 --> 01:49.300
Oh, may the saints above see fit that he comes back in time.

01:58.460 --> 02:09.540
Watson, look.

02:09.540 --> 02:22.860
Holmes, where did you get that wallet?

02:22.860 --> 02:23.860
It's not yours, is it?

02:23.860 --> 02:24.860
Oh, no, it isn't.

02:24.860 --> 02:29.860
But would you believe me if I told you I lifted it from a pickpocket?

02:29.860 --> 02:30.860
No.

02:30.860 --> 02:31.860
You what?

02:31.860 --> 02:32.860
Yes.

02:32.860 --> 02:36.860
He lifted it from that gentleman over there, and as he passed me in full flight, I lifted

02:36.860 --> 02:37.860
it from him.

02:37.860 --> 02:41.860
Well, don't you think it would be good to give it back to the owner before he leaves?

02:41.860 --> 02:43.140
Ah, better than that.

02:43.140 --> 02:46.380
I'll place it back in his pocket without him even being aware that it was taken in the

02:46.380 --> 02:47.380
first place.

02:47.380 --> 02:48.380
Oh, Holmes.

02:48.380 --> 02:52.860
Ah, but this is far harder than lifting a wallet and requires diligent training.

02:52.860 --> 02:59.860
Now, watch me closely, Watson.

02:59.860 --> 03:04.860
Oh, police!

03:04.860 --> 03:06.860
Police!

03:06.860 --> 03:10.860
Hey, Watson!

03:10.860 --> 03:17.860
Hold on to him!

03:17.860 --> 03:22.860
Sure.

03:22.860 --> 03:26.860
You were very lucky.

03:26.860 --> 03:29.860
If the stranger hadn't come into the office at that moment, you'd still be in prison.

03:29.860 --> 03:31.860
Well, I got up and so it went wrong.

03:31.860 --> 03:33.860
Probably a little more practice was all I needed.

03:33.860 --> 03:36.860
Now, I suppose you haven't considered the other alternative.

03:36.860 --> 03:41.860
Behaving like a perfectly sane, normal human being, instead of going absolutely mad all

03:41.860 --> 03:42.860
over the...

03:42.860 --> 03:43.860
Watch on, eh?

03:43.860 --> 03:44.860
Well, who's that?

03:44.860 --> 03:47.860
Well, who is he?

03:47.860 --> 03:52.860
An Irishman by the color of his shirt and the shamrock in his buttonhole.

03:52.860 --> 03:56.860
I'd also conclude that he was a typesetter by the ink-stained condition of his fingernails.

03:56.860 --> 03:58.860
Look, Holmes, that's neither here nor there.

03:58.860 --> 04:00.860
The man is in our flat.

04:00.860 --> 04:01.860
Do you know him?

04:01.860 --> 04:03.860
I've never clapped eyes on him before in me life.

04:03.860 --> 04:04.860
Hey!

04:04.860 --> 04:05.860
Hey!

04:05.860 --> 04:09.860
I don't mean to disturb you, but...

04:09.860 --> 04:13.860
Hey, what time is it?

04:13.860 --> 04:14.860
Four o'clock.

04:14.860 --> 04:15.860
Oh, good.

04:15.860 --> 04:16.860
We've still got eight hours.

04:16.860 --> 04:20.860
Look, if you're a human being at all, you'll be helping me, Mr. Holmes.

04:20.860 --> 04:21.860
My name is Watson.

04:21.860 --> 04:22.860
Oh.

04:22.860 --> 04:23.860
Yes, Mr. Holmes.

04:23.860 --> 04:27.860
Mr. Holmes, my name's Brian O'Casey, a man of propriety, poor as I am.

04:27.860 --> 04:29.860
Oh, and mother, forgive me.

04:29.860 --> 04:33.860
I wouldn't be breaking in here this way at all, only I'm the most desperate of men.

04:33.860 --> 04:34.860
Yes, yes.

04:34.860 --> 04:37.860
I gathered from your note, Mr. O'Casey, you obviously shoved it under the door, ran away,

04:37.860 --> 04:40.860
and then returned, fearing I might have overlooked it, eh?

04:40.860 --> 04:42.860
Well, the cat might have run off with it.

04:42.860 --> 04:43.860
Or a wee mouse.

04:43.860 --> 04:45.860
Oh, we haven't got a wee mouse here.

04:45.860 --> 04:47.860
Oh, well, you know what I mean.

04:47.860 --> 04:49.860
I didn't want to be missing you.

04:49.860 --> 04:51.860
Not with 8,000 pounds at stake.

04:51.860 --> 04:55.860
So I came back here, and I let myself in so that I'd be waiting for you.

04:55.860 --> 04:57.860
Yes, well, that's most understandable, Mr. O'Casey.

04:57.860 --> 04:59.860
Now, perhaps you'd like to sit down and have a rest.

04:59.860 --> 05:02.860
Oh, thank you very much.

05:02.860 --> 05:03.860
Do you know something?

05:03.860 --> 05:05.860
My heart's beating like a trip hammer.

05:05.860 --> 05:08.860
Yes, I expect it is.

05:08.860 --> 05:12.860
Well, you were saying something about 8,000 pounds.

05:12.860 --> 05:14.860
Well, that's the amount that's due to me.

05:14.860 --> 05:19.860
But unless I can get hold of Mr. Snowby midnight tonight, I'll not get a penny of it.

05:19.860 --> 05:22.860
Who is this man, Snow?

05:22.860 --> 05:25.860
Well, he's the man who's holding the last third of this ticket.

05:25.860 --> 05:27.860
You see, he's holding numbers three and four.

05:27.860 --> 05:29.860
And without these, we can't...

05:29.860 --> 05:31.860
Just a minute, Mr. Casey.

05:31.860 --> 05:35.860
I realize that time is of the essence, and I should very much like to help you indeed.

05:35.860 --> 05:40.860
But perhaps you'd be good enough to start and tell your story right from the beginning.

05:40.860 --> 05:42.860
Oh.

05:42.860 --> 05:45.860
Yes, of course.

05:45.860 --> 05:48.860
But...

05:48.860 --> 05:52.860
Where does it begin?

05:52.860 --> 05:58.860
Now, perhaps it begins with this terrible feeling of homesickness I have.

05:58.860 --> 06:04.860
It came on me all of a sudden, and it got worse and worse until...

06:04.860 --> 06:10.860
I couldn't look at anything that didn't remind me of my home in County Killarney.

06:10.860 --> 06:16.860
Well, anyway, I was walking along this lunchtime, and I saw this woman, Belle Rogers.

06:16.860 --> 06:18.860
And, well, you might have seen her yourself.

06:18.860 --> 06:20.860
In the Marylebone Road.

06:20.860 --> 06:22.860
May the saints punish me if I'm lying.

06:22.860 --> 06:24.860
She didn't know me at all.

06:24.860 --> 06:26.860
But she smiled at me.

06:26.860 --> 06:28.860
I wasn't taught to be a fool.

06:28.860 --> 06:44.860
I lit off as fast as me feet could carry me.

06:44.860 --> 06:57.860
Another glass of stout, if you please.

06:57.860 --> 06:59.860
Brian O'Keefe!

06:59.860 --> 07:02.860
I saw you in front of the bakery shop just now.

07:02.860 --> 07:04.860
But you got away before I could get your attention.

07:04.860 --> 07:05.860
Oh, hurry, Albert.

07:05.860 --> 07:06.860
What was the big rush?

07:06.860 --> 07:08.860
Oh, I ain't telling you, Albert.

07:08.860 --> 07:10.860
A man has to look out for himself in this city.

07:10.860 --> 07:12.860
What do you mean?

07:12.860 --> 07:15.860
Look, as plain as I'm standing here, she smiled at me.

07:15.860 --> 07:16.860
Right out in public.

07:16.860 --> 07:18.860
Who?

07:18.860 --> 07:20.860
That's Irene in the bakery window.

07:20.860 --> 07:27.860
Now.

07:27.860 --> 07:28.860
Twice.

07:28.860 --> 07:30.860
What's the time?

07:30.860 --> 07:32.860
Well, how the devil would I be after knowing that?

07:32.860 --> 07:34.860
You mean you didn't find out?

07:34.860 --> 07:36.860
Can't you see, man, that's exactly what she wanted me to do.

07:36.860 --> 07:38.860
Well, I find good luck.

07:38.860 --> 07:42.860
Good luck, you say?

07:42.860 --> 07:44.860
Now, look here, Albert Snow.

07:44.860 --> 07:46.860
I...I...I...I...you don't mean any disrespect to your country.

07:46.860 --> 07:49.860
but the fact is, I've been saving me money for one reason only.

07:50.860 --> 07:52.860
And that's to get back to Earth as soon as possible.

07:53.860 --> 07:56.860
And no tantrust with a honey tongue is going to flamboozle me out of it.

07:57.860 --> 08:00.860
Okay, so you may be doing the poor girl an injustice.

08:00.860 --> 08:04.860
Ah, but look, the fact is that she smiled at a perfect stranger.

08:04.860 --> 08:06.860
And in a certain way.

08:06.860 --> 08:11.860
Now look, no woman is going to do that unless she's interested in getting the poor fool's money.

08:11.860 --> 08:12.860
Now...

08:12.860 --> 08:14.860
Stay close by me. She's followed me here.

08:15.860 --> 08:17.860
Oh, there you are.

08:18.860 --> 08:20.860
I didn't think you'd run off when I smiled.

08:21.860 --> 08:24.860
What do you want with me? It's in the window you belong.

08:24.860 --> 08:26.860
I only want to talk to you.

08:27.860 --> 08:29.860
Ask her to sit down.

08:29.860 --> 08:33.860
But look, this is no place for a woman.

08:34.860 --> 08:36.860
This is a tavern, you know.

08:36.860 --> 08:39.860
You'll ruin your reputation if you sit here.

08:39.860 --> 08:42.860
People won't buy the cakes you make.

08:42.860 --> 08:44.860
I'll only be a moment.

08:46.860 --> 08:48.860
Right here, miss...

08:48.860 --> 08:49.860
Rogers.

08:49.860 --> 08:50.860
Miss Rogers.

08:50.860 --> 08:51.860
Tell Rogers.

08:53.860 --> 08:56.860
Now there's a name for you.

08:56.860 --> 08:58.860
Beautiful.

08:58.860 --> 09:01.860
My name is Snow. Albert Snow.

09:02.860 --> 09:04.860
This here's my friend, Mr. Brian O'Casey.

09:04.860 --> 09:08.860
How do you do? Come on, Brian, sit down.

09:08.860 --> 09:09.860
Oh...

09:10.860 --> 09:11.860
Oh, Royce.

09:17.860 --> 09:19.860
Now listen, Mr. O'Casey.

09:19.860 --> 09:20.860
Yes?

09:20.860 --> 09:23.860
Would you be willing to give me a pound?

09:23.860 --> 09:25.860
You see, I told you so.

09:25.860 --> 09:27.860
No, wait, let me finish.

09:27.860 --> 09:29.860
Yes, let the little lady finish.

09:29.860 --> 09:35.860
It's an investment. I'd like you to be my partner in something.

09:35.860 --> 09:37.860
What kind of something?

09:37.860 --> 09:39.860
A sweepstake ticket.

09:40.860 --> 09:42.860
A sweepstake ticket?

09:42.860 --> 09:46.860
Yes. I've got one, and I'd like you to buy half of it from me.

09:47.860 --> 09:50.860
I don't understand any of this at all.

09:50.860 --> 09:53.860
Call it superstition, Mr. O'Casey.

09:53.860 --> 09:56.860
You see, I'm not a superstition.

09:56.860 --> 09:59.860
Call it superstition, Mr. O'Casey.

09:59.860 --> 10:03.860
You see, I noticed you were an Irishman from the bakery window.

10:03.860 --> 10:06.860
That four-leaf clover in your buttonhole.

10:06.860 --> 10:09.860
And since everybody knows the Irish are lucky,

10:09.860 --> 10:12.860
I'd like an Irishman to be my partner.

10:12.860 --> 10:15.860
Well, it isn't for a woman to be gambling.

10:15.860 --> 10:17.860
Perhaps not.

10:17.860 --> 10:22.860
But think. Think, if we win, we'll divide 24,000 pounds.

10:22.860 --> 10:25.860
Aye, and if we lose, which is much more likely, I'll be out a pound,

10:25.860 --> 10:27.860
which is half a week's pay.

10:27.860 --> 10:30.860
Now, wait a minute. I've got an idea.

10:30.860 --> 10:32.860
Why don't the three of us share a ticket?

10:32.860 --> 10:35.860
You can afford that much, can't you, O'Casey?

10:35.860 --> 10:39.860
You'd be going against fate to turn down a gesture like that.

10:39.860 --> 10:41.860
Fate?

10:41.860 --> 10:43.860
It's kismet, O'Casey.

10:43.860 --> 10:46.860
But I've never won anything in me life.

10:46.860 --> 10:50.860
But all the better. The law of averages is on your side.

10:50.860 --> 10:52.860
Do you have the ticket with you, miss?

10:52.860 --> 10:55.860
Yes.

10:57.860 --> 11:01.860
One, six, six, three, four.

11:01.860 --> 11:05.860
Does that sound like a lucky number, or doesn't it?

11:05.860 --> 11:08.860
Well, I suppose I could chance 13 shillings.

11:08.860 --> 11:10.860
That's the spirit!

11:10.860 --> 11:14.860
Now, wait a minute. Who's going to keep this ticket?

11:16.860 --> 11:20.860
We could tear it up three ways, and each one of us keep a piece.

11:20.860 --> 11:24.860
That way, no one person would hold the ticket and be able to desert the rest.

11:24.860 --> 11:28.860
That's fair. In order to cash in, we've all three got to come together again.

11:28.860 --> 11:31.860
Here, O'Casey. Tear it in three parts.

11:31.860 --> 11:34.860
Now, look. We'll all have to keep our stubs in a safe place,

11:34.860 --> 11:38.860
because if one of us loses his, all three of us would suffer.

11:38.860 --> 11:41.860
Right. Now, shall we seal the partnership?

11:41.860 --> 11:45.860
One, six, six, three, four.

11:45.860 --> 11:50.860
Extra sweepstakes tickets drawn. Lucky numbers listed.

11:50.860 --> 11:57.860
Extra, extra sweepstakes tickets drawn. Lucky numbers listed.

11:57.860 --> 12:00.860
Extra, extra sweep... Do you want a paper, sir?

12:00.860 --> 12:03.860
Oh, yes, yes, I do.

12:03.860 --> 12:09.860
Extra, extra sweepstakes tickets drawn. Lucky numbers listed.

12:09.860 --> 12:12.860
Get your midday paper.

12:12.860 --> 12:15.860
Extra, extra sweepstakes tickets drawn.

12:15.860 --> 12:19.860
Oh, please be here. I know other people want to win as much as I do,

12:19.860 --> 12:23.860
but I'm hoping so much to see the source of Ireland again.

12:26.860 --> 12:29.860
Extra, extra... One, six, six, three, four.

12:31.860 --> 12:33.860
Oh.

12:36.860 --> 12:39.860
One, six, four.

12:39.860 --> 12:42.860
Oh, well, it's not the first one.

12:42.860 --> 12:45.860
Oh, well, maybe it'll be the second.

12:49.860 --> 12:54.860
Oh, no, no, no. Take it easy, Brian boy. There's still five more numbers.

12:54.860 --> 13:00.860
Extra, extra sweepstakes tickets drawn. Extra, extra sweepstakes tickets drawn.

13:00.860 --> 13:02.860
Oh.

13:02.860 --> 13:05.860
That Albert Snow.

13:05.860 --> 13:11.860
I was mad to let him talk me into this. Kismet. Fate.

13:11.860 --> 13:16.860
I ain't going to pay all 13 shillings. That's what my fate's going to be.

13:16.860 --> 13:18.860
Oh.

13:24.860 --> 13:29.860
One, six, six, three, four.

13:29.860 --> 13:31.860
That's a number.

13:31.860 --> 13:34.860
That's... That's a number.

13:34.860 --> 13:39.860
It's mine. It's mine. This week's date money's mine.

13:39.860 --> 13:41.860
Extra, extra, extra.

13:41.860 --> 13:44.860
It's mine. It's mine.

13:53.860 --> 13:59.860
Albert, Albert, Albert Snow, look. Our tickets been drawn. Our tickets been drawn.

13:59.860 --> 14:02.860
Oh, Bob, why do you think I'm treated...

14:02.860 --> 14:04.860
What are we going to do? Shall we sell it?

14:04.860 --> 14:08.860
Come on over to the table. We'll have a meeting of the stockholders to decide.

14:08.860 --> 14:10.860
Wait till I get my beer.

14:10.860 --> 14:12.860
I knew it, Mr O'Casey. I knew we'd be lucky.

14:12.860 --> 14:15.860
Then I was appalled not to be listening to you right off.

14:15.860 --> 14:18.860
It was like I said, O'Casey. Kismet.

14:18.860 --> 14:22.860
But sit down, everybody. Let's decide what our next step's going to be.

14:24.860 --> 14:27.860
The question which confronts us now is,

14:27.860 --> 14:32.860
shall we sell the ticket or hold on to it and go all the way?

14:32.860 --> 14:37.860
Vernon Dream, our horse is a 20 to 1 short, but he could win.

14:37.860 --> 14:40.860
I say, I say let's go all the way.

14:40.860 --> 14:44.860
Oh, well, I'm not that much of a gambling man myself.

14:44.860 --> 14:47.860
But Mr O'Casey, you just admitted you were lucky.

14:47.860 --> 14:49.860
You can't desert us now.

14:49.860 --> 14:54.860
Us? What do you mean by us? Do you mean you both decided already?

14:54.860 --> 14:59.860
Well, Bill and I have been seeing a bit of each other.

14:59.860 --> 15:03.860
Actually, we speculated on what we would do if our ticket was drawn.

15:03.860 --> 15:07.860
O'Casey, wouldn't you like to be rich?

15:09.860 --> 15:11.860
Well, sure I would, but...

15:11.860 --> 15:14.860
Let's put it to the vote. Majority wins.

15:14.860 --> 15:17.860
No, wait a minute, Bill. Of course, we'd outvote him.

15:17.860 --> 15:20.860
But I think in a case like this, since we're all friends,

15:20.860 --> 15:23.860
a decision like this should be made unanimously.

15:23.860 --> 15:27.860
How about it, O'Casey? Come in with us.

15:36.860 --> 15:38.860
Sir Vernon Dream.

15:43.860 --> 15:45.860
Hey, waiter, I'd have another beer.

15:45.860 --> 15:53.860
As long as he's paying, bud.

16:16.860 --> 16:18.860
Oh, no!

16:27.860 --> 16:29.860
Where's O'Casey?

16:29.860 --> 16:33.860
Vernon Dream won! Vernon Dream won!

16:33.860 --> 16:43.860
He's fighting.

16:51.860 --> 16:53.860
How do you feel?

16:53.860 --> 16:59.860
Did you hear? Vernon Dream won.

16:59.860 --> 17:03.860
It's rich, we all are.

17:03.860 --> 17:06.860
Yes, I heard.

17:06.860 --> 17:09.860
Where's Snow?

17:09.860 --> 17:13.860
I don't think he's coming.

17:13.860 --> 17:16.860
What do you mean he's not coming?

17:16.860 --> 17:19.860
He's got a third of our ticket. He has to come.

17:19.860 --> 17:22.860
I've been looking for him since last week,

17:22.860 --> 17:25.860
when he broke an appointment with me.

17:25.860 --> 17:29.860
Mr. O'Casey, he's disappeared.

17:33.860 --> 17:36.860
Disappeared?

17:36.860 --> 17:41.860
Well, that was ten days ago, Mr. Holmes.

17:41.860 --> 17:45.860
And disappear he has, right off the face of the earth.

17:45.860 --> 17:48.860
And a third of the ticket along with him.

17:48.860 --> 17:52.860
I see. And now you only have until midnight to find him, eh?

17:52.860 --> 17:56.860
Well, that's when the ticket becomes invalid. At midnight tonight, on the dot.

17:56.860 --> 17:58.860
Yes, yes, well that's serious indeed.

17:58.860 --> 18:00.860
I should say so.

18:00.860 --> 18:03.860
Well, look, do you think you can do something to help us?

18:03.860 --> 18:06.860
I was told if anyone could perform a miracle towards you...

18:06.860 --> 18:09.860
Well, that's a little exaggerated, but I'll do my best.

18:09.860 --> 18:11.860
Where can I get in touch with you, Mr. Casey?

18:11.860 --> 18:14.860
Well, you'll be finding me at the Golden Coach Inn tonight.

18:14.860 --> 18:18.860
Miss Rogers and I decided to stay there until closing time, in case Albert should turn up.

18:18.860 --> 18:20.860
Oh, good, good. Well, I'll look for you there, then.

18:20.860 --> 18:22.860
Right, thank you very much.

18:26.860 --> 18:30.860
Oh, well, Mr. Holmes, I noticed you playing with those cards...

18:30.860 --> 18:33.860
and it didn't miss me glance that you made one disappear.

18:33.860 --> 18:37.860
Yes, yes, well it's not very difficult, you know, once you've got the knack.

18:37.860 --> 18:40.860
Oh, I imagine not, only I reckon the lights ought to be kind of low...

18:40.860 --> 18:44.860
because I saw you put one right there.

18:44.860 --> 18:46.860
Oh, yes, yes, that's right.

18:46.860 --> 18:49.860
Yes, well, have a good day, Mr. Casey.

18:49.860 --> 18:51.860
Good day, Mr. Holmes.

18:57.860 --> 19:00.860
Yes, well, I'll work it out in time.

19:00.860 --> 19:02.860
Why don't you give it up altogether?

19:02.860 --> 19:06.860
I was referring to the disappearance of Mr. Snow.

19:06.860 --> 19:07.860
Oh.

19:07.860 --> 19:09.860
Where are you going?

19:09.860 --> 19:13.860
We are going to the baker's shop to see Miss Rogers, Watson.

19:13.860 --> 19:15.860
About what?

19:15.860 --> 19:17.860
It's almost five o'clock, Watson.

19:17.860 --> 19:19.860
Well, well.

19:19.860 --> 19:22.860
We have just seven hours until midnight.

19:22.860 --> 19:34.860
If I'm right, Watson, this won't take more than a minute.

19:34.860 --> 19:36.860
Good afternoon.

19:36.860 --> 19:38.860
I'd like to speak to Miss Rogers.

19:38.860 --> 19:40.860
Oh, yes, of course.

19:40.860 --> 19:42.860
I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't.

19:42.860 --> 19:44.860
I'm afraid I can't.

19:44.860 --> 19:46.860
I'm afraid I can't.

19:46.860 --> 19:48.860
I'm afraid I can't.

19:48.860 --> 19:50.860
I'm afraid I can't.

19:50.860 --> 19:52.860
Good afternoon.

19:52.860 --> 19:53.860
I'd like to speak to Miss Rogers.

19:53.860 --> 19:54.860
Is she here?

19:54.860 --> 19:56.860
She left this morning.

19:56.860 --> 19:57.860
Oh?

19:57.860 --> 19:58.860
Why?

19:58.860 --> 20:00.860
Don't ask me.

20:00.860 --> 20:02.860
When I arrived, she was gone.

20:02.860 --> 20:05.860
There was only a note from her saying she'd taken one of the 12-layer cakes,

20:05.860 --> 20:07.860
which she would pay for in the morning.

20:07.860 --> 20:08.860
Aha.

20:08.860 --> 20:10.860
Was it by any chance a white cake?

20:10.860 --> 20:12.860
One of my very best.

20:12.860 --> 20:14.860
Thank you very much for the information.

20:14.860 --> 20:20.860
Good afternoon.

20:20.860 --> 20:22.860
I was right, Watson.

20:22.860 --> 20:45.860
Come on, Cammie.

20:45.860 --> 20:46.860
Mr. O'Casey.

20:46.860 --> 20:49.860
Mr. O'Casey.

20:49.860 --> 20:50.860
Oh, here.

20:50.860 --> 20:51.860
Take it easy.

20:51.860 --> 20:52.860
I'll get you a shelter.

20:52.860 --> 20:53.860
It's all right.

20:53.860 --> 20:54.860
What's the matter?

20:54.860 --> 20:56.860
What's happened?

20:56.860 --> 20:57.860
The police.

20:57.860 --> 20:59.860
They found his coat in the river.

20:59.860 --> 21:00.860
Albert's?

21:00.860 --> 21:03.860
Yes, it was all bloodstained and there was a bullet hole in it.

21:03.860 --> 21:05.860
Oh, no.

21:05.860 --> 21:15.860
And the ticket's somewhere at the bottom of the river.

21:15.860 --> 21:18.860
What are you going to do?

21:18.860 --> 21:22.860
I'm going to throw my stub into the fire and watch it burn.

21:22.860 --> 21:24.860
It's useless now.

21:24.860 --> 21:30.860
But Miss Rogers, I...

21:30.860 --> 21:32.860
There.

21:32.860 --> 21:35.860
Now give me your stub.

21:35.860 --> 21:38.860
It was my idea to split up the ticket.

21:38.860 --> 21:41.860
I deserve to see my mistake all the way through.

21:41.860 --> 21:43.860
You may as well, Mr. O'Casey.

21:43.860 --> 21:50.860
With Miss Rogers' stub destroyed, yours, I'm afraid, has no value.

21:50.860 --> 21:54.860
But you told me there was hope.

21:54.860 --> 21:55.860
Yes, I know.

21:55.860 --> 21:56.860
I'm sorry.

21:56.860 --> 21:57.860
I was mistaken.

21:57.860 --> 22:08.860
You may destroy it now, Miss Rogers, if you wish.

22:08.860 --> 22:22.860
Now it's all finished and done with.

22:22.860 --> 22:31.860
And we hoped we're so high up, seeing the shores of Ireland soon again.

22:31.860 --> 22:39.860
But no.

22:39.860 --> 22:43.860
Yes, yes, perhaps a little tea would improve your spirits, eh?

22:43.860 --> 22:46.860
I can still see the picture of those two at that inn.

22:46.860 --> 22:48.860
It'll take me a long time to get over that, Holmes.

22:48.860 --> 22:57.860
Oh, I think you'll get over it sooner than you imagine.

22:57.860 --> 22:58.860
Holmes, what?

22:58.860 --> 23:01.860
Leisure to main, my dear fellow.

23:01.860 --> 23:02.860
The hand deceives the eye.

23:02.860 --> 23:14.860
This afternoon, after I left you, I palmed a piece of another sweepstake ticket on Miss Bell Rogers.

23:14.860 --> 23:16.860
Neat, eh?

23:16.860 --> 23:18.860
Would you like a little whiskey in your tea?

23:18.860 --> 23:20.860
It'll do you good, you know, and help you sleep.

23:20.860 --> 23:22.860
Blast the tea, Holmes.

23:22.860 --> 23:24.860
You're hiding something from me.

23:24.860 --> 23:32.860
Well, nothing really, except that it occurred to me that Snow and Bell Rogers had contrived to cheat O'Casey out of his money.

23:32.860 --> 23:39.860
I was absolutely certain of this when we visited the baker's shop, and I found out that she had taken a large white cake.

23:39.860 --> 23:41.860
Well, what's that got to do with anything?

23:41.860 --> 23:45.860
A large white cake, very appropriate for marriage, don't you think, Watson?

23:45.860 --> 23:47.860
You think they were married?

23:47.860 --> 23:48.860
Or about to be.

23:48.860 --> 23:51.860
Yes, but that still doesn't tell me what kind of a scheme they had.

23:51.860 --> 23:53.860
Well, it was really quite ingenious.

23:53.860 --> 23:57.860
Snow would go into hiding, and at the crucial moment give the impression that he'd been murdered.

23:57.860 --> 24:02.860
Now, this was the cue for Miss Rogers to give up hope and throw her stub onto the fire.

24:02.860 --> 24:07.860
Ah, yes, but it wasn't the real stub, but one that she had obtained, as I did.

24:07.860 --> 24:12.860
Now, very artfully, she would get O'Casey's stub from him and pretend to do the same.

24:12.860 --> 24:19.860
You... you mean she really kept O'Casey's stub and destroyed a dummy one?

24:19.860 --> 24:26.860
Exactly. Now, she and Snow would have had a complete ticket if I hadn't substituted a dummy of my own.

24:26.860 --> 24:31.860
Well, that's amazing, oh, fantastic. Well, it makes sense now.

24:31.860 --> 24:36.860
Or does it? After all, you've no proof of anything.

24:36.860 --> 24:39.860
Your whole theory is just a series of inferences.

24:39.860 --> 24:42.860
If once your premise is wrong, the whole structure collapses.

24:42.860 --> 25:02.860
Naturally, my dear Watson.

25:02.860 --> 25:07.860
I believe you've met Miss Rogers, and this is the missing Mr. Snow.

25:07.860 --> 25:11.860
I think you'd better fetch O'Casey now, Watson.

25:11.860 --> 25:18.860
I can't predict what his feelings will be when he sees you, but you know what Irish tempers are.

25:18.860 --> 25:20.860
Why, say, Holmes. Yes?

25:20.860 --> 25:24.860
Don't you think that Mr. O'Casey's third share is worth at least half?

25:24.860 --> 25:53.860
Oh, yes. Yes, quite right, Watson. At least a half.
